Buying the 2023 Nissan Kicks SR

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2023 Nissan Kicks SR for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2023 Nissan Kicks SR, here are the facts that matter.

Before you sign for the Kicks

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Engine and fuel

The 1.6L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Its combined rating is 7.1 L/100 km, which means roughly 21 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $11.01, and a 300 km weekend about $33.03. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Who the Kicks suits

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Practical details

As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. EPA lists 708 litres of luggage space, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

Try before you buy

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week with the Kicks answers more than any brochure.

Picking a year and a trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Compare the SR with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

Money matters

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $110.10 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
